You can report iMessage spam to Apple by taking a screenshot of the message and emailing it to imessage.spam@icloud.com. Apple asks that you also include: The full email address or phone number you received the unwanted message from, and the date and time that you received the message. Also make sure to only send messages labeled "iMessage", SMS and MMS messages labeled "Text Message" should be reported to your carrier.

Imo.im announced today it will begin offering free voice calling for iOS users via its imo instant messenger app. The free service allows users running iOS version 3.1 to make voice calls through Wi-Fi and 3G connections. According to imo, "free voice calling eliminates the cost of mobile minutes without any loss in the quality of the connection and, when connected to Wi-Fi, requires no data usage."
The instant messaging client connects users to 11 of the top third-party messaging services. It supports Facebook Chat, Google Talk, Skype, MSN, ICQ/AIM, Yahoo, Jabber, Hyves, VKontakte, Myspace and Steam. The app features group messaging, photo sharing, concurrent sessions on different devices, searchable chat history and provides the ability to share multimedia files with other users.
You may have tried to send more than one picture to your friends via the Messages app on iOS. Currently there's no way to add more photos when sending an MMS, that is unless you open the Photos app and do it from there.
The process is simple, just open Photos and go to the Album or Camera Roll to choose the pictures you want to text. Tap the arrow button in the upper right hand corner. Tap the photos you wish to send via MMS, and a red check mark will appear over the photos selected.

What's great about Twitter and several other apps on the iPhone is that you can simply pull down to refresh information. Jailbreakers may already know this is the preferred way to refresh with IntelliScreenX, for example. Apple has seen the light and will be adding this functionality to the Mail app in iOS 6.
If your device is already jailbroken with Absinthe, you can add pull to refresh to your Mail app right now for free. The name of the tweak is Pull To Refresh for Mail and it comes to us from developer xh and the BigBoss repo on Cydia.
